Campaign to Rcgln.
WASHINGTON, Sept, 28. Final
preparations for the launching of the
second liberty un of $3,000,1)00,0110
or iiore were j-'lunpletc'd today with
the 'publication of the details of the
offering by Secretary JIcAdoo. A
nation-wide campaign to obtain put
riotic, subscriptions to the loan will
be started Monday and will close
October 27.
Prominent among the features of
the new offering is the privilege of
converting bonds of this issue into
bonds of any subsequent series ear-
tying an interest rate in excess of
4 per cent. The terms of payment
are 2 per cent on application, 18 per
cent November !",' .0 Per cent De
cember 14 and 40 per cent January

nominations of $50 and more. They

holdings into the new 4 per cent se
curities at bis option, but the new -1
percent bonds are taxable under the
surtaxes of the new income tax
rates, while the .'I1, ' per cent issue is
exempt. 1 lie effect of this will be
that holders of large amounts .un
doubtedly will keep their tax exempt
bonds, a 1 1 lio they bear a lower rate
while the smaller bidders, who have
not enough to come under the new
sur-taxes, will convert their bond:
to the higher rate.
V Irellcts Over-Subscript ion.
Atlantic city, n. j., Sept. 2s.
Vast over-subscription of the
$3,000,000,000 second liberty loan
was confidently predicted by Sccre
tnry McAdoo in nn address here to
day before the American Hankers
association calling on the bankers to
give the same patriotic support to
the new bond issue that they gave
to the first.
Fanphasizing the. tremendous fin
nnojal task nheiid of the nation, Mr,
McAdoo pointed out that it would be
necessary to raise between thirteen
nnd fourteen billion dollars by nddi
tional bond issues before June 30,
1018. This will not be ensv, he said
but it can be done by everybody
banker, business man and mm nnd
fwonicn in every walk of life joining
hands to see it thru.
Kosources Formidable.
"Fortunately," he added, "the re
sources of America were never so
ample for ourselves nnd so fonnid
able for our enemies as now. The
combined resources of the national
nnd state banks (including tru:
companies) of the United States are
no $37,000,000,000., At the out.
bregk of the civil war the combine
resource of the banks were csliiuat
ed fn be $l,foO,000,000, and yet with
these limited banking resources the
Irnin government raised $3,000,000,
O0(k by bond sales, or twice the
amount of the banking resources of
tho country. 1'pon the same bui
we Should now be able to raie $71

I am not suggesting that this mav
be done: I nin only drawing a coin

7TH ANNIVERSARY
RED LETTER DAY
E
Saturday marks the seventh nnni-
vprsary of the establishment of the
C. Mann dry goods store, and the
event will be dulv celebrated in a
record-breaking sale, to which the
public is cordially invited. ; -i
Seven years ago Mr. 'Mann- pur
chased the location nnd stock of tho
Raker-Hutchison Co.', and his advent
Was marked by the. installation of-
up-to-date, progressive business
methods and straightforward, hon
est policy, resulting in an ever-widening
circle of permanent customers,
compelling frequent enlargements in
space to accommodate the ever
growing business.
There is no finer stock carried in
southern Oregon than that displayed
by Mr. Mann, and he can point with
pride to the fact that each year has
seen an increase in business, despite
hard times. The store is as metro
politan in appearance as the stores
of the largest cities and satisfied
customers insure its future.
Mr. Mann ranks as one of the best
citizens of Medford, having served
the public on the city council nnd in
various other capacities. As one of
the organizers of the local cannery,
as member of the fair board, ns di
rector of ,the C'ommerciiU club, and
one of the lenders in the' movement
for a sugar factory and irrigation,
in patriotic movements like the Red
Cross, he has given his time, money
nnd energy freely for the develop
ment of the. community and for his
country .
No small part of the success of the
Mann store is due to tho fact that
Mr. Mann is the best advertiser
among the merchants of southern
Oregon a consistent and intelligent
advertiser who gets results from his
ilvertising beenuse he gives store
news nnd always Iins something to
say that neonlc want to hear. His
anniversary sales arc alwavs worth
while not only for the selection of
new goods offered and I he style
how presented, but for the genuine'
bargains proffered.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S. Members
of the Imperial Japanese commission
to the United States, beaded by Vis
count Ishli, today began tho Becond
day o their visit to New York with
night-seeing trip thru th'o down
town streets, where the flag of Japan
has been added to the colors of the
other allies placed ou almost every
building since America entered the
war. In the afternoon the envoys laid
wreath on the tomb of Gonorai
Grant.
I. W. W. CHIEFS INDICTED
(Continued from Page One.)
'iindu. There was evidence that
German money was plentifully sup
plied, as shown in many letters and
cancelled cheeks.
One feature which the investiga
tion brought out sharply 'was the
large, almost predominating member
ship of Austrinns in the ranks of the
I. W. W. local organizations, nnd
also the large membership of the
various races which comprise Austria-Hungary.
Thousands of these
men, unrestrained because tlte I nitctl

federal investigators have found
have been free to carry on ,-vhutcvyf
activities were planned.
Majority Are Austrian.
It is understood that the indict
incuts have been found under tho
section of the criminal code def'ininc,
"ot't"iises against the existence of the
govcrnment."
Se.'tion 0 of the criminal code, ua-
dcr , lich it is understood the
dictmcnts hnvj been found, rends
folloxs;
"If two or more persons in any

United States contrary to Ihe au
thority thereof, they shall be lined

The offense charged is regarded
by officials as next in gravity to

"I am welt and safe. Somewhere

were 15 days on the water hut had
a very good trip. The 3ea was very
rough for a few days. .. I was sick
the first Say, but after that felt fine.
"I was at Aldorshott on Saturday
to some big gameB and war maneu
vers. I saw the king and queen there.
There were just 12 from our regi
ment that were there to see them.
I went there with an Englishman who
used to live hero, hut came from
'Frisco with me. Ho has been all
around the world, too. He knows
every place and explains them to me.
His name is Richard Burns, ,
"We went to London yesterday.
Ho took me to all the old buildings
and described them all 4o me. . I
have tried to get leave to go to Scot
land but could not leave camp for
over night. Nobody could. We ex
pect to leave soon, any hour, but
have the promise of getting off when
we get settled, which will be very
soon.
"I thing England is a very pretty
pW'o, the prettiest I cvor.saw. We
suro get treated fine and the people
do everything they can for ub. But
you can see that the country is in
wari I: wrote you from SU Paul,
Minn., also sent cards as I went along
the road. Could not say much. Could
not even pass anything thru the win
dows clUier way. Very strict. But
we had a good trip.
'I am wondering how everything
Is over in the U. S., and how every
one is at home. , I sent you a cable
gram as soon as the officers would
let . mo. I would suro like to hear
from you folks at homo.
'I am well and fine, mother, could
not bo better, and havo everything
we really need, so don,'t worry about
me. I will he all right. I nopo you
get this letter all O. K., but cannot

DEATH OF ASHE
LONDON, Sept. 23. The death In
Dublin Wednesday of Thomas Ashe,
a Sinn Fein leader, reported to have

cording. to a dispatch to tho Daily
Mail from Dublin, has accentuated

tho surface of Irish politics and Sinn
Fein opinion la inflamed seriously.
Ashe's body, dressed In tho uniform
of the Irish volunteers, lies in state
in a Dublin hospital and there may
be a public funeral on Sunday. It
is said that other Sinn Fein leaders
In the hospital prison where Ashe
died , are in a dangerous condition.
At the Inquest Thursday Into the
death of Ashe, Profossor McMooney
testified that tho post morten exami
nation, at which several other doctors
were precsnt showed that Ashe did
not die of hunger. The body was not
emaciated and there, was an abund
ance of food In the stomach. Death,
ho said, was duo to syncope, arising
partly from heart trouble and partly
from nn intense congestion of the
lung. Ashe's hoart, ho added, was ab
normal and he would bo apt to suc
cumb to any sudden shock or pro
longed struggle. .1 ...
, Dr. McKenna, a hospital surgeon,
